... in the room' hitherto but not this time so if you are offended by stories of legal drug taking then you might want to tune back in next paragraph: This was definitely the swankiest coffee shop I had ever been in. In the foyer there were glass electric barriers one in one out and the guy on the door scanned my passport before letting me through. Not at all like Amsterdam where they just have a laminated menu on the bar, but I kinda liked it ...

... to be similar to yesterday (when there was a persistent drizzle for much of the day) however when it started to get harder I thought it was settling in and with a fair breeze out there too I thought, "It'll take a miracle for meto get to Maastricht today."
Well if you were my mother then you will say that a miracle is exactly what I got (I just hope that this is coming around not going around if u catch my drift), moving the stuff out to the bike there was ...

Sadly after this my relation ship with s'-Hertsogenbosch was to go downhill fast as the curse of the signposts struck again (see fig. 1 - guess which one I took first?) After the signs disappeared I wasn't immediately concerned (they do that, like I said) however as all traces of any signposts vanished for about 20 minutes, and it took me another 20 to find someone to ask at that time. And so it was with a sense of ...

Just a quick note to have a little pin in my last (which was also my first) city of my excellent European trip :)

I had a really nice evening with Alwin and Stephanie (my original hosts in Europe), walking through the old town, having some nice hot red wine, and then some beers at a local brewery. Nice night, and then slept really well to go take my train to the airport in the morning...

I had a nice 10 hour flight from Dusseldorf to Fort Myers, Florida...

De schumibruder zijn bij elkaar gekomen om de laatste puntjes op i te zetten.
Vanuit het Digitale Dorp Sambeek vertrekken we maandagmiddag (few, toch nog uitslapen maandag) naar schiphol.

De eerste tussenstop zal dan tussen de Udon noodles en de Sushi van Tokyo zijn.

Nu eerst nog zeker zijn dat de blog gaat werken, dus als je tot hier komt dan is dat alvast gelukt.

... during the holidays, it's basically warm red wine with spices, I have yet to try it though. I found out that Germany DOES have egg nog and that was a great discovery. They also have Jaeger Tea...weird? so I have a few more things I must try before the season ends. There is seriously so much food being served that it's impossible to try all of it. They have a lot of spiced nuts and these things they make from mashed potatoes where they basically take some meat and pack mashed potatoes around ...

... shower and needed to hold up their towel. Sometimes they would use one arm for a gesture, but I mean really... how graceful can u be when u look like someone who just stepped out of the shower? It was bizarre to say the least. The sets were reasonably boring. The costumes, well, apparantly we were lucky coming late because in the beginning there was someone in a g string, the others tell me. And also, all of the people pretty much wore the same thing to the point where I couldn't ...

... everywhere that they are a No Smoking Station....yet they have smoking areas right in the middle of the platforms that are not contained so it just filters all through the station, enclosed trains have smoking areas right next to non smoking areas with no doors...(go figure)..plus the authorities are the worst culprits smoking in the wrong areas! Anyways....it was sooo good to have a friend around who knows me and someone to run a muck with -has made me a ...

... haircuts and clothing that comes in the 'one size fits most' variety. They drink beer and dance and whistle at 'our Jan's' rather portly backing dancers and then they all return to their chintz and cheesecloth homes on the bus. At the moment Amsterdam's going through a bit of a bad spell, there aren't many clubs due to the city-centre noise regulations, so if you want a good night out head for one of the smaller towns ...
